An attack at the American embassy in Ankara, Turkey, left two people dead and wounded a journalist today, the New York Times reports. Initial information indicates that the bomber detonated an explosive belt at a security entrance, killing himself and 47-year-old Mustafa Akarsu, a Turkish man working as a guard. Local media said the far-left Revolutionary People’s Liberation Party-Front was behind the attack, Reuters reports, which comes four months after a deadly assault on the U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya. White House spokesman Jay Carney said this afternoon that “the attack itself is clearly an act of terror.”
